Exploring the "Thousand Islands Lake Shadow"|Yangming Lake's Danxia Secret Realm and Ecological Poetry

#Mainland Travel Yangming Lake Scenic Area (formerly Doushui Lake), located in Shangyou County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, famous for its "high gorges, flat lakes, and thousands of islands." The water area is 31 square kilometers, with a water storage capacity of more than 800 million cubic meters. There are 427 bays and 42 islands of various shapes in the lake, like emerald inlaid among the mountains. Must-experience highlights: 1️⃣ Danxia Wonders·Symphony of Mountains and Rivers Climb the "Five Finger Peak" to overlook the red cliffs and steep cliffs of Chibi and feel the wonders of nature. The lakeside "Tai Chi Bagua Bay" retains the remains of the 20th century forest train railway, and the sight of a steam locomotive traveling through a time tunnel is nostalgic. 2️⃣ Ecological Treasure House·Green Healing Visit the "Gannan Arboretum", this "Jiangnan Plant Gene Bank" brings together more than 1,700 woody plants, including 52 rare and endangered species in the world, just like a natural museum. Take a cruise ship to travel between the "Sleeping Girl Peak" and the "Lion and Elephant Water Outlet". The lake water is as clear as a mirror, and the concentration of negative oxygen ions reaches 60,000 per cubic centimeter. It is a natural oxygen bar in the hustle and bustle of the city. 3️⃣ Hakka style and taste memory Savor the Doushui Lake Fish Feast, where stonefish, whitebait and other lake seafood are steamed or braised, paired with Hakka handmade taro dumplings and smoked meat to experience the old-fashioned flavor. On summer and autumn nights, the light show and lotus flowers of the "Dashe Lotus Garden" complement each other, making it look like a fairyland. Limited surprise: • Starry sky camping: Stay overnight in a tent by the lake, enjoy the night lights of the Danxia landform, and listen to the concert accompanied by pine waves and streams. • Zen experience: Participate in the “Scripture Copying and Meditation” workshop to experience the deep integration of Zen culture and landscape conception. Useful information: • Tickets: Full ticket is 100 yuan (including basic scenic spots), some items are charged separately. • Transportation: Drive to Yangming Lake Scenic Area, or take the high-speed rail to Ganzhou Station and transfer to the shuttle bus (1.5 hours). From the wonders of Danxia to the Zen forest, Yangming Lake, with the attitude of "one lake hiding the past and the present", invites you to carefully appreciate the poetry interwoven with nature and humanity. Plan your trip now and become a witness of this thousand-year-old protection!
